All modern BMW SUVs X3, X5, X7 rear wiper blades swap in and out the same. For the 2019-2026 BMW X5 it's: Genuine BMW Part Number: 61627442093 O.E. Part Number: Valeo 14T
Guys it's only something like 450 in-lbs, that's like 39 ft-lbs. If they torqued the lug nuts right to 100+ ft-lbs that doesn't seem any way it would work.
FYI. Too many adapters. Adapters bleed some torque out. I assume its for demonstration purposes only? I would never use an impact driver to remove lug nuts. Like the name suggests its a driver to drive things (in) not break torque (out). For that I would use my mid or high torque impact wrench. I’m a big fan of customizing my tools. I’m currently converting a M12 impact driver to 3/8” impact wrench to use in tight spaces and low torque applications.
Bend backward bit, on both sides of the common metal strip under the cap, so that the cap gain back some closing tension. This cap is a 1/4 turn for closing off. Last 1/8 or 1/10 of the turn should feel tight to close. So me a fit in a 1/2" wide band of micro fiber around the circumference of the closed as a way to keep area oil free. Regards
Be happy that the impact driver didn’t have enough power for the lug nuts. If it had enough, it would’ve busted your adapter before removing the lug nuts. I’ve busted at least six or 20 of those adapters. Just buy an impact wrench when you need it.
I never thought to flip the seal. That’s a great idea! I’ll try that next time. I later learned that you can replace the seal instead of the whole cap. I did it in one of my more recent videos.
@@FixItRyan if your at the point of age it's probably best to just replace the cap for that price. On the older metal caps it was worth replacing the seal. But even they started to leak internally and had to be replaced.
Video summary: Man uses completely wrong tool for given application. Man explains it does not work for application. Man ends video by suggesting you use the correct tool...I have been inspired to make a video of myself attempting to eat soup with a fork, but I will reveal that a spoon is the solution at the end.
@@dizdewd777 Yep, and if you want to remove lug nuts, the M12 impact wrenches are barely up to the job and likely to not be able to do it. Right tool for the right job.
Im confused to what the purpose of this demo? The surge impact is not meant for lug nuts and is not meant for car lifting. A regular drill driver would be a better fit to lift the car. The impacts jerking movement is not ideal to use with car a floor jack.
I would probably not want to life my car like that for the sake of keeping my scissor jack's threads in good shape, but it's an interesting feat that it has no problem doing it. In most cases, it's better to break the lugs loose with a breaker bar first anyway and do the final tightening with a torque wrench, so this impact is still just fine for the job.
I encountered the same thing. Although I was disappointed, this is not the application that the surge is designed for. It does a great job driving screws into wood as intended.
I don’t think the Milwaukee 12v surge was designed for that. If your going to use it for your car you should get a Milwaukee m18 gen 3 fuel or impact wrench the strength on those are incredible especially with the high output batteries
I have the 3/4 variant and the xc 6 battery on it. It does on the occasion take of lug nuts but they were tighthened to spec. . you also have like 2 other attachments on it which can indeed result in less removing torque
The Torque Channel guy did a series of tests with attachments to show just how much power is lost. Quite a bit from his tests. If you have a nut that requires an extension, or worse a universal joint, you usually have to step up the impact driver to the next bigger one.
I have the same Surge drill and I love it. So quiet and can handle 2” and under on the 3.0 and under batteries anything under 3” using the XC batteries without much drama. So you are correct Housplant, the surge is FUEL and takes advantage of the XC batteries power architecture. Still not sure if it would take off a lug nut, but a 4.0 or 6.0 definitely adds umph on mine when driving the longer screws. Cheers!
Your video is exactly what I was looking for. I needed to change my air filters too and could not find them under the hood. I got 2 for 1 thanks so much!
